In the crumbling kingdom of Morag, corruption thrives, and hope is scarce. Three unlikely heroes are bound by fate-and stolen swords of ancient power.
Zadra, a cunning thief, sets chaos in motion when she steals the enchanted blades. Kaël, a disgraced former guard drowning in regret, seeks redemption. Silas, a sharp-witted scribe, holds secrets that could either save or doom them all.
Together, they must unite the four swords to awaken a power that could restore their kingdom-or destroy it. But as betrayal looms, they must decide what they're willing to sacrifice for the ones they love.

Every generation bears the sins of the last. When Anastasia is forced into a marriage she never chose, she becomes bound to Killian-a man feared for his silence as much as his violence.

Killian has waited years to dismantle the family that destroyed his own, and through Anastasia, he finally holds the thread that can unravel them all. But fate has a cruel sense of irony. The woman meant to be collateral begins to matter. And the deeper the bond between them grows, the more impossible his revenge becomes. Because some threads, once pulled too tight, cannot be cut without blood.
